27acf968e7 * acgeneral.m4 (AC_CHECK_TOOL): As AC_CHECK_PROG first tests the
value of the VARIABLE argument when looking for executables, we
need to set it to the correct value from AC_CHECK_TOOL when not
just passing on the incoming VARIABLE directly.

AC_LANG_COMPILER by the way of AC_COMPILE_IFELSE etc.
* acspecific.m4 (_AC_EXEEXT): Use _AC_LINK_IFELSE, not

ac_configure_args, rather snapshot them twice (one kept
unmodified, another one to be written to/overwritten by the cache
file).

be overwritten when loading the cache (i.e., don't use the

variables.
